For the record, a jointer plane is typically longer than the 17" plane in this video. What I made here is more like a try plane, but very few people know what that is, so I called it a jointer. Hope no one's confused!

@therealzilch 3 года назад

Here in Europe, it's pretty easy to pick up old try or jointer planes cheaply and fix them up. I've got more than I can use. Anyone who comes to my workshop in Vienna can have one for what I paid- five bucks.

@sethmiller1357 3 года назад

Perfect! I've a no 4 sized plane that once belonged to my dad's father. He was a carpenter for the Army during WWII. I don't think it is a Stanley, but I do know the body is cracked, making it little more than a decoration and memory. I also have a good sized chunk of cherry culled from my mother's father's orchard 40-ish years ago. He was a hobbyist woodworker and I have several of his old chisels and planes (no. 5, low angle block, rabbeting), though I only remember him using power tools (my uncles wanted those, but not the hand tools). I think a useable and useful plane built out of mementos from both of my grandfathers would be an awesome project!

@smyLor__________________ 3 года назад

Thank you once again Rex for another amazing video! A lot of woodworking YT Channels often rely on the assumption that premium power tools are a given - for those of us with the lack of finance it's utterly refreshing to see the genuine artistry in your work, championing the power, effectiveness and complete relevance of hand tools. Keep on doing what you're doing; it's a great cause!

@professor62 3 года назад

@AndrewFullerton Месяц назад

Thanks for all these videos. I have limited space and budget, but I've recently discovered that woodworking is really theraputic for me. It helps me feel connected to my Dad since he passed away -- he was an engineer and handyman who designed and built some really impressive carpentry projects, but he didn't have a ton of tools meant for fine woodworking like hand planes. Videos like this are helping me bridge the gap between my Dad's expertise and my personal interests. Thanks again, and remember that you're having an impact!

@lrochfort 3 года назад

You just got a new subscriber. I like that you're showing a pragmatic compromise between new and old tools, and not making out you need every new expensive tool under the sun. I really love Paul Seller's content, but sometimes I find he's so experienced that some of his recommendations, such as just using a No 4 are tricky for a beginner. I think your two channels should complement each other very well.

@markhalvorson4631 3 года назад

I’m so glad someone finally did a video on this type of plane! And you did it your own way. Great job, Rex!

@ChrisUK76 3 года назад

I've recently become a big fan of your channel. I picked up a plane that had seen much better days and restored it, then I thought "maybe I should try using it!" And so, I started scouring YT for videos on how to do that and stumbled across your videos. And then I made a mallet. And a basic wooden box with simple dovetails. I'd already made a bench of sorts, but now I'm planning to make the joiner's bench. And probably this plane. I see a pattern emerging... Anyway, thanks for the excellent videos, they're highly appreciated.

@dosadosa112 10 месяцев назад

We recently lumbered a 36" maple, a 36" white ash, and a 32" pecan. After drying, we tried planing with a Rigid (Home Depot) 13" planer with 2 HSS knives ru-vid.comUgkxIzvvTi3_Qc8JnVdYYRJCvuoDC4QjTzeL . This job was clearly too much for that machine. The pecan was particularly difficult, due to heavy mineral deposits, and a sharp pair of HSS knives would be consumed by a mere 3 boards. We were also having lots of problems from chip bruising, due to poor dust collection. The shavings came off like straw and jammed in the 4" hose.We bought the DW735 simply to be able to run carbide blades, which worked brilliantly for the pecan. However, we found it to be a much, MUCH nicer machine. It was far more rigid than the "Rigid" planer, and far more accurate as well. But what I liked most about it was the dust feed. This machine has its own blower, which shreds the "straw" like shavings as they come off the cutting head and helps boost the shavings into the dust collection system. No more clogs! It's also nicely sealed so that the internals stay quite clean. This is just a well tempered machine that's a delight to use. It literally cut the labor in half. Just another example of getting what you pay for.

@jsmxwll Год назад

About a year ago I built one of these after watching this video. I wanted my frog to sit nice and flat because I built an extra sliding dovetail mechanism to adjust the mouth. Long story short, some epoxy and a nice piece of flat steel will get you a piece of perfectly flat surface with good wear characteristics.

I get an amazing amount of enjoyment out of making the planes that you, in your bundle, Paul Sellers in his poor man projects and James in his Wood by Wright series have shown. Yes, I held my breath with a few of the earliest attempts but I've enjoyed making and using them a lot. I did kinda slow myself down when I decided to build your low angle Jack because I don't like aluminum and wanted brass but I finally located a local source for enough for a few projects. I dunno, might do one of these and retire my 18" transitional.

I highly recommend a lathe file for metal, especially cast iron. The teeth are angled more and it has a smoother shearing action than a mill file. Plus it leaves a better surface finish.

@EgaoKage 3 года назад

7:47 A tip while sanding. Because the leading side will lose material faster, due to the trailing side being lubricated by dust, it helps to turn the part 180 degrees and sand with the opposite side leading. Alternate every so often. And when you're within a dozen or so strokes of being done, alternate every other pull.

Thank you so much Rex, for inspiring me once more. You've done it again! I have an old jointer (22") that I was considering re-mouthing as it's worn out. I wasn't much looking forward to that project, as it isn't really a good quality well made one to begin with and a wedged single iron. I also have a few old planes and plane parts lying around. You know what? I'm shooting for a full 22" jointer version of what you just showed us. I have some 1/4" beech and other bits of beech all recovered from old furniture, so it's good and dry. A nice figured Indian or Indonesian wood block for the front section and it'll look great.
